Quadron, a Danish duo made up of producer Robin Hannibal and singer Coco of Boom Clap Bachelors, specialize in shimmery downtempo with soul and girl-group touches. Their self-titled debut album is being issued in the U.S. March 23 by Plug Research and is available on iTunes now. The coy and playful "Pressure", a highlight from the record, has this Daniel Kragh-Jacobsen-directed video with a teen romance theme.
